Callaway Big Bertha Fusion Golf Fairway Wood
A Material Change In Distance and Forgiveness
The Callaway Big Bertha Fusion fairway woods were designed for players of all handicaps and skill levels, although the club will most likely benefit the middle and high handicap player the most. The innovative features Callaway introduced with this line of woods primarily focus on improving the height and distance of mis-hit shots, without sacrificing any feel or workability. This fairway wood is well-balanced, as it serves the needs of all players. However, low handicap players may seek out a club which focuses more on workability.
Callaway’s main goals with the Big Bertha Fusion fairway woods were to increase forgiveness and speed. To accomplish this, the company introduced a new ultra-light triaxial carbon crown that is 78 percent lighter than a typical steel crown. This radical change allowed Callaway to shift a large amount of excess weight around the clubhead to maximize forgiveness and increase the amount of ball speed the club could generate. The Big Bertha Fusion fairway woods also feature Callaway’s signature Hyper Speed Face Cup technology, which helps to create a hot face that can produce jaw-dropping ball speed numbers.

Maximum Forgiveness from Fusion Technology
Big Bertha Fusion pairs an aerospace-grade titanium Exo-Cage with our ultra-light Triaxial Carbon crown and sole. The fusion of these materials allowed Callaway engineers to position substantially more weight in the perimeter and far back from the face compared to our previous drivers, resulting in a dramatically higher level of forgiveness.
Speed and Forgiveness from a New and Innovative Shape
Big Bertha Fusion's Triaxial Carbon Exo-Cage gives us the freedom to break previous tradeoffs regarding head shape, giving us the ability to create an appealing new shape that combines fast aerodynamics with high MOI. The new shape also gave us new options in acoustic engineering, allowing us greater ability to evoke an especially satisfying sound and feel.
Increased Head Speed from Industry-leading Aerodynamics
The streamlined head shape, aided by our proprietary Speed Step that we created with the help of aerospace experts, is designed to move faster through the air.
